Airmar B150M – sonda travessera de bronze 300W (95-155kHz) amb element inclinat (12°) + temperatura – (8 pins)

This CHIRP transducer operates across a mid-frequency range from 95 kHz to 155 kHz. This 60 kHz bandwidth provides extended coverage for fish detection.

Yes, the Airmar B150M transducer is equipped with an integrated water temperature sensor, providing real-time temperature data.

The B150M transducer, with its 300W power output, can reach maximum depths of 183 metres (600 feet) under optimal conditions.

The beam angle of the Airmar B150M transducer ranges from 26° to 17°, improving target detection beneath the boat.

The housing of the Airmar B150M transducer is made of bronze, a material recommended for fiberglass or wooden hulls.

The B150M's CHIRP technology offers several advantages:

High-resolution sonar images.Improved target separation compared to fixed-frequency transducers.Better detection of fish near structures.Ability to recognize haloclines and thermoclines.An improved signal-to-noise ratio for finding fish and tracking the bottom at high boat speeds.

Thanks to its tilted-element design, the B150M transducer protrudes only 5 mm (0.19") below the hull, minimizing protrusion.

The B150M depth sounder is recommended for boats up to 8 meters (25 feet) and is compatible with all propulsion types. It is suitable for fiberglass or wooden hulls, whether displacement, planing, or stepped hulls.

The Airmar B150M transducer, with its bronze housing, is specifically recommended for fiberglass or wooden hulls.

The B150M sounder, featuring a 12° tilted element, is designed to compensate for hull deadrise angles between 8° and 15°. This ensures the sonar beam is directed straight down, optimizing echo returns.

No, it is strongly discouraged to install a bronze housing, such as the one on the B150M, on a metal hull. This would cause electrolytic corrosion.

The Airmar B150M transducer is equipped with an 8-pin connector, ensuring compatibility with your Garmin equipment.

Yes, the B150M transducer is compatible with all propulsion types, making it versatile for various boat configurations.

For installation of the B150M transducer, a 51 mm (2") hole must be drilled from the outside of the hull. For cored fiberglass hulls, a 60 mm (2-3/8") hole is required from the inside of the hull.

During installation, the arrow on the top of the transducer must point toward the keel or the centerline of the boat. This aligns the internal angle of the transducer with the deadrise angle of your hull.

For optimal performance, select a location where:

The water flowing under the hull is smooth, with minimal bubbles and turbulence.The transducer is continuously submerged in water.The transducer beam is not obstructed by the keel or propeller shaft.The location is away from interference sources (propellers, engines, other fishfinders, cables).For CHIRP sounders, the location is cool and well-ventilated, away from the engine, to prevent overheating.

No, it is crucial to always operate the CHIRP transducer in water. Operating it in air can cause the transducer to overheat, potentially leading to failure.

No, the B150M transducer’s design with its 12° tilted element compensates for the hull’s deadrise angle, eliminating the need for a fairing block. This also reduces the protrusion under the hull.
